Not sure. Just change the resgistration # to GV after you create the account....problem solved.

You can't forward multiple Google Voice #'s to one phone...only one # per phone at a time. But eBay will never know as long as you set up the Voicemail correctly.

So im guessing by default the voicemail says its a google voice and you have to change that?

That's correct. Just record a generic voicemail that says something like: "Hey, this is "Stealth Name", I can't get to the phone right now, please leave your name and number and I'll call you back as soon as I can."

For the record, you CAN use Google Voice to create accounts, but 99% of the time you WILL get 0/0 limits, and you'll have to call in to get them increased.

It's a bit of a hassle, easier to just use a Tracfone, but it's possible if you're on a budget or if you want to get higher than 5/10 items per month (usually I get 25-50.)

Still, easier and faster to use Tracfone.

I'd wait at least a month before changing any registration info period.

There's nothing wrong with Google Voice once the account has been created, for the record.

Go to Walmart and get a $25 visa gift card

It comes with the 3 digit code and you can add any address and zip code to it.

You can also receive codes sent to you when you login online

I like tracfone. I have never liked GV. To me it is a pain in the ass. Once you run out of minutes or days, you can buy a refill card for 30 minutes/90 days for like $20. Hopefully your stealth account can handle that expense when the time comes to renew it. But thats just my opinion.

Again, if used to CREATE the account, it will result in 0/0 limits.

This has resulted in MANY members complaining about it, and the vets here are tired of hearing about Google Voice because of it.

Thus, the general advice is to suck it up and buy Tracfones. Personally, for some of my "backup" accounts, this would be a wasted expense. If you know how to do it correctly, you won't have problems. Just follow the above mentioned advice.
